Blossom of snow, may you bloom and grow
[short review]
I love this scent on my wife.
It's not a Gardenia Bomb meaning that does not behave like a beastie fragrance. Its sillage and longevity are a bit above average and it projects quite heavily during the first hour.
It opens very fresh with a kind of an herbal scent but not the traditional fougére. The heart is tottaly dominated by white flowers (mainly gardenia of course, but probably a bit of jasmine and/or tuberose, and other sweet white flowers like orange blossom) with some added fruity jam sweetness. The dry down is really gourmand and pleasant with dominant vanilla and a touch of cashmere or sandalwood-like woody vibe.
It has a vibe of Black Opium and Dior Addict Eau de Parfum (my wife owns both as well), but I consider it a clone of neither, and I prefer the Chanel scent.
Its seduction increases if you also spray clothes or hair.
Bearing in mind all that matters most in a perfume (scent, performance, cost, and compliments), I would rate this EdP scent as a very clear 8.5~9.0/10.0. The bottle is very simple and similar to other Chanel.
I hope other men will have the chance to scent it on their loved ones as well. It's really a magnificent gardenia floral and sweet EdP.
